Can You Double Chicken and Bean Weeknight Paella

Asked Jul 23, 2021 by Konstantin V.

I am making Chicken and Bean Weeknight Paella for eight people tomorrow. Do I need to double all the ingredients from the recipe for 4, including doubling the chicken broth? I am considering using a 14" ScanPan versus the recommended 12" pan. What would be the increase in ingredients to align with the larger pan size?

    Thank you for your reply! I ended up using a 14" pan to slightly expand the surface area. I proportionately increased the ingredients slightly. I also layered in shrimp that I sautéed separately in thr last three minutes.

    It turned out great. Excellent recipe, thanks!
